About This Home
As of August 2025Tucked away in the heart of Duxbury, this extraordinary retreat offers 1.77 acres and is surrounded by over 15 acres of protected conservation land preserved by the Wildlands Trust. Unparalleled privacy and natural beauty make this a truly one-of-a-kind sanctuary. Breathtaking panoramic views of the marsh and coastal wildlife provide a stunning backdrop to a thoughtfully designed custom home. Soaring ceilings, walls of glass, and a seamless indoor-outdoor flow invite sunlight and nature into every room. The chef’s kitchen, grand entertaining spaces, and tranquil bedrooms are crafted for effortless elegance and comfort. Step outside to expansive decks, stone patios, and a serene screened porch—perfect for both lively gatherings and quiet moments of reflection. With deeded access to three exclusive Standish Shore beaches, and just minutes from Duxbury Village shops and dining, this is more than a home—it’s a sanctuary.
